Gehenna Countdowns; Best Music Video's

Best Music Video's
I like music that makes me think, and/or feel and so I feel the same way towards music video's. Generally a good video to me is a good story, well performed and that of course, fits with the song. Here is my countdown of the five best music video's ever.

5: Flobots - Handlebars
Displaying the bipolar natures of humans at their maximum. Handlebars pits our selfish, corporate and dominant side against our selfless, giving nurturing side, ending in the only plausible outcome. This, is handlebars by Flobots.


4: Foo Fighters - Breakout
The comic styling that we know and love Foo Fighters for is present in no other video more than Breakout. This is the song and video that got me into Foo Fighters in the first place. Foo Fighters, Breakout


3: Slipknot - Spit It Out
The vehement masked band here with the video to Spit It Out, directed by Clown this video manages to keep up with the fast pace of the song and and remain comedic and creepy. Slipknot's parody of The Shining, Spit It Out.


2: Pendulum - Slam
It is hard, very hard to make a great music video, but a fat guy dancing in the street is a sure fire way to do it ;) No more explanation needed, this is Pendulum, with Slam


1: Rammstein - Link 2 3 4
In my opinion the greatest music video of all time. Yes the animation may be pretty old by now but it is still an amazing video. I was stuck between either sonne, kein lust and this, though ultimately, Links was bound to take it. Here is Rammstein punching home their left wing views with Links, 2, 3, 4
